Plateau Governor Defects from PDP to APC, Strengthens Party's Position in North Central
Plateau State Governor Caleb Mutfwang has officially defected from the People's Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC). The announcement was made by the APC National Chairman, Nentawe Yilwatda, during the party's 14th National Caucus meeting in Abuja.
Mutfwang's defection is seen as a significant boost for the APC in the North Central region and comes amidst a growing trend of defections from the PDP to the ruling party. The move is expected to have serious implications for the political landscape in Plateau State.
Prominent figures within the APC, including Bola Tinubu, were present at the meeting.
